WASHING
First things first, check the inside label to ensure that the garment is machine-washable. If so, it’s always best to think, “Go gentle”. A good idea is to separate your knits from your regular laundry and then separate again by whites and colours before turning them inside out for the wash.In terms of detergent, check the label to see if it’s OK to use on knits, but there are specific wool washes available in most supermarkets. When it comes to choosing the cycle, use the hand-wash option. The maximum temperature of the wash should not exceed 30°C. As an extra precaution, you can place your knits in a mesh bag that's commonly used for underwear and other delicates. If you’re still hesitant about putting knits into the washing machine, you can always hand-wash instead.
